Work Text:
The Stellaron crisis in the Xianzhou Luofu has been resolved by the Astral Express crew for over a week now. The Luofu have shown their gratitude and have thanked them multiple times. And to Dan Heng, being able to freely roam his homeland still feels weird. He often gets looks from people on the streets because he looks like him. Dan Heng figured he would be mistaken or reminded of Dan Feng since he experienced it when he was with Bailu in Scalegorge Waterscape. A few of the Vidyadhara Mirage Echoes had thought he was the former High Elder.
Currently, Dan Heng is walking to the Seat of Divine Foresight to speak with General Jing Yuan. He’s been having dreams, no, more like visions of his past incarnation. Each one of them had Jing Yuan in them. New questions form in his mind after each vision.
“Ah, Dan Heng,” a voice says, stopping him. He had just got to the entrance of the Seat of Divine Foresight.
“General,” he starts with a nod of his head. He quickly looks him up and down, noticing he is a more casual outfit. “I was about to walk in and talk to you about something.”
“Please call me Jing Yuan. We are friends, yes?” the white haired male questions with a smile.
“Of course we are… Jing Yuan,” Dan Heng says, correcting himself.
The smile on the General’s face grows. “Would you like to join me for my lunch? You can speak with me then, only if you’d like to.”
“Oh, uh… yeah. I wouldn’t mind joining you. I haven’t eaten lunch yet,” the black haired male replies, his gaze off to the side.
“Great. The restaurant we are going to is down the street, only a few minutes walk. Come with me,” Jing Yuan says, motioning for Dan Heng to follow him. The young dragon quickly catches up and walks beside him.
“When we get there, can we ask to sit in a more private area? What I want to talk to you about is rather personal,” Dan Heng asks, looking to his side at the General.
“I can do that, yes.”
“Thank you.”
“No need for thanks.” There’s a smile on his face still.
The rest of the walk is silent, which neither of them mind. Thankfully it is not an awkward silence and it is on the comfortable side.
Dan Heng’s mind wanders as the two men are quiet. His memories take him back to the day they all defeated Phantylia. His mind replays the moment when Jing Yuan fell into his arms and how, for a moment, they looked at one another. At the time, he didn't know if all the emotions he had felt were his or Dan Feng’s. Sometimes, if he closes his eyes and concentrates, he can still feel the weight of the General in his arms.
“Lost in thought?”
“My apologies,” Dan Heng replies as he glances at the man beside him.
“What’s on your mind?” the white haired male asks.
Dan Heng hesitates for a moment before he answers. “It’s related to what I want to talk with you about.”
“I see,” Jing Yuan’s gaze moves in front of them, “Ah, we’re here.” The General holds the door open for Dan Heng with a bright smile on his face. “After you.”
The black haired male walks in front of the other man and glances around the restaurant. “This is too fancy, Jing Yuan. I’m not dressed correctly for this,” he says, looking at the said male. They make their way up to the host stand.
“Nonsense, you look fine,” Jing Yuan says with his hand waving dismissively. His attention then moves to the woman standing at the host stand. “Hello, a table for two, please. Can we sit at a table that is more private?”
“Of course, General.”
The two men follow the woman to the back of the restaurant and she seats them. She tells the two of them that their waitress will be there shortly. Which wasn’t a lie. A couple minutes later, a waitress comes by to take their order. Once she leaves, it falls silent again.
“So, what did you need to talk with me about?” Jing Yuan asks after a few more beats of silence. The older man has his elbow up on the table with his cheeks resting in his hand. Dan Heng thinks the General looks handsome at this moment.
The black haired male takes a deep breath in before speaking. “I’ve been having dream-like visions at night. They are of Dan Feng and I’m reliving them as him.”
“I see. Are they newer ones from the ones you have told me about from before?” the elder asks, his gaze never shifting.
“Yes,” Dan Heng pauses to collect his thoughts, “They are more… intimate than previous ones. In these visions, you are there with Dan Feng.” His gaze shifts off to the side. “The two of you seem relaxed and happy in them. The way I — he stares at you is full of… fondness. No matter what the two of you were doing. Whether it was walking together in your garden, sharing dinner together, or in a battle.”
“Oh?”
Before Dan Heng could continue speaking again, their waiter brings out their food. Both men give her their thanks before she walks off. For the third time that evening, it falls silent between the two of them as they begin to eat.
The younger male breaks the silence by asking, “Were you and him romantically involved with one another?”
“Yes, we were,” Jing Yuan answers immediately, no hesitation.
The dark haired male nods his head before asking, “Do you feel the same way about me?”
Jing Yuan chokes on the bite of his food he just took and quickly takes a sip of his water after his coughing fit. “I don’t have an answer for that,” he replies. His gaze still never shifts but Dan Heng can notice a slight change in his golden eyes.
“But you do, don’t you? Do I look like him? Do I remind you of him?” he asks, firing question after question. The young dragon knows he looks like Dan Feng, he only asked because he wants to hear an answer from Jing Yuan. He also knows that the General does think he looks like him.
“Dan Heng,” the white haired male starts, silencing the other male, “You already know the answers to these questions.”
“I want to hear you say them, please,” Dan Heng says. There is a hint of desperation in his tone.
This time, the General’s gaze does shift. “Do you mind if we go to my residence after this and talk more about this subject there?” he asks.
The younger male hums and says, “If that’s what you want.”
“Thank you,” Jing Yuan breathes out.
“Of course.”

“Your place looks the same as it does in my visions,” Dan Heng comments as he looks around. “It’s nice.”
For the rest of their lunch, they did talk but kept the conversation away from Jing Yuan and his past with Dan Feng. The younger male had apologized for putting any pressure on the General and for making him feel uncomfortable. Jing Yuan had reassured him that he didn’t but Dan Heng still felt bad. At the end, they had lightly argued who was paying, the white haired male had won.
“Thank you. I’ve never liked changing my home around,” the elder replies as he slips his shoes off. Dan Heng does the same. “Make yourself comfortable, I’ll get us something to drink.” The dark haired male stays silent as he goes and sits down on the couch.
Minutes later Jing Yuan comes back with wine glasses in his hands and sits down beside the younger male. The two men face each other once they get comfortable. “I hope that wine is okay,” he says as he hands a glass to Dan Heng.
“Yes, it’s fine. Thank you,” he replies, taking the glass. Both of them take a sip of the wine.
“The answer to all of your questions is yes. I think you look like him more when you are in your Imbibitor Lunae form than your mortal form and you do remind me of him,” Jing Yuan pauses to take another sip of his wine, “But you two are different when it comes to a few things. The way you carry yourself is different from him. He was slightly taller than you as well.”
“Was telling me that I’m shorter necessary?” Dan Heng questions, the corners of his lips twitch up into a small smile. Jing Yuan only laughs in response. He thinks for a moment before he continues to speak, “So that does mean you hold the same feelings for me, correct?”
Golden eyes meet teal ones as Jing Yuan answers, “Correct.”
Even though Dan Heng knew this, he still feels a little shocked after hearing the General say out loud that he does, in fact, have feelings for him. Dan Heng could tell that the feelings Jing Yuan held for him were more than friendly the day that older male released him from the Shackling Prison. Dan Heng knows that if it wasn’t for Jing Yuan, he would still be in his old cell, thanks to his previous incarnation.
“I see,” the dark haired male replies before taking another sip of wine.
“What about you? Do you have feelings for me, Dan Heng?” Jing Yuan asks. His head tilts to the side as he looks at the other male.
A blush forms on Dan Heng’s cheeks as he gulps down more of his wine, Jing Yuan does the same as he waits for an answer. “I can’t tell if these are just Dan Feng’s feelings or if they are also mine,” he answers.
A smile slowly makes its way onto the elders face as one of his eyebrows raise. “That would be a yes then, correct?” Jing Yuan asks, sort of mimicking the younger one’s words from earlier.
Dan Heng’s breath hitches and he says, his voice trailing off, “Maybe…”
“Maybe?” Jing Yuan repeats, his smile growing.
“Yes,” the young dragon says, his voice above a whisper.
The older male looks him up and down slowly, causing Dan Heng to become flustered. He could feel his cheeks heating up a little. “You don’t have to be in your mortal form around me, you know that right?” Jing Yuan asks.
“I’m used to staying in this form all the time,” he mumbles in reply, his eyes meeting the white haired male’s again.
“You’re safe to be in your Imbibitor Lunae form here. I am the last person who would say anything negative about it,” the elder says, reassuring the other male.
“Thank you.”
Before Jing Yuan could say anything, he watches in amazement as Dan Heng’s horns appear on his head and his hair grows longer. His eyes land on the dragonic tail that appears behind the younger male, he watches as it sways softly.
His gaze moves back up to the young dragon’s face and he says, “Beautiful.”
Dan Heng looks away as he finishes off his wine. “Do you only say that because I look like him?” he asks as he sits his glass on the coffee table.
“I’ll admit that some of the feelings I hold for you are because of the feelings I had for Dan Feng. But,” the General pauses so he can sit his glass down and he softly grabs both of Dan Heng’s hands, “Being able to spend time with you while you and the Astral Express crew are still here, has also made me fall for you. Everything that I feel is for you, Dan Heng.”
Dan Heng looks down at their intertwined hands, feeling as if another hand has wrapped itself around his heart and gave it a little squeeze. Parts of him feel a little silly for letting a simple touch get him this flustered. His gaze then slowly goes back up to look at Jing Yuan’s face again. “I… I want to kiss you. Can I kiss you?” he asks.
“Oh,” the elder starts, shock evident in his voice, “Of course you can.”
The younger male removes one of his hands from Jing Yuan’s hand and places it on the back of the elder’s neck. He pulls the white haired male closer to him and instantly connects their lips. Dan Heng didn’t intend to start this kiss out as a faster pace one, but he did. It’s a little messy and an uncoordinated kiss but neither one of them seem to mind that. Kissing Jing Yuan has been something he craved, so maybe he became a little greedy once the General gave him the okay to kiss him. Could you really blame him for that?
Jing Yuan pulls away, only for a moment. He goes to say something but Dan Heng cuts him off by kissing him again. The elder makes a noise against his lips, causing Dan Heng to thread his fingers through his white locks and pulls him even closer. His other hand untangles itself from Jing Yuan's grasp to rest on the older male’s waist, gripping it lightly. Jing Yuan places both of his hands on each of Dan Heng’s thighs. He smiles against the kiss when he feels the muscles of Dan Heng’s thigh twitch under his skin and hears the thud of his tail hit the couch.
This time, the young dragon pulls away, feeling breathless. Soft and shallow pants leave both of their lips. Dan Heng rests his forehead on Jing Yuan. “Sorry. I didn’t want to stop once I started kissing you,” he says, smiling softly. He keeps his hand tangled in the elder’s hair.
“Don’t apologize, I didn’t mind it at all,” Jing Yuan says as he lets out a chuckle. He moves one of his arms to wrap around Dan Heng's waist.
“That’s good to hear then,” the younger male says before connecting their lips into another kiss. “Can I kiss other parts of you?” he asks against Jing Yuan’s lips.
“You don’t have to ask, do whatever you please,” the white haired male replies.
A low, dragonic growl escapes Dan Heng’s mouth at the elder’s words and he softly yanks Jing Yuan’s head to the side by his hair. A moan leaves the General’s lips and his eyes widen at the action. His grip on Dan Heng’s thighs tightens some. The young dragon slowly places open mouth kisses up and down the side of Jing Yuan’s neck, feeling himself getting hard in his pants.
“I’ve never done something like this before so I hope I’m doing okay,” Dan Heng whispers against the older male’s skin before leaving more kisses on his neck.
“Hm? Never kissed anyone before? You’re doing just fine. You’re making me feel good,” Jing Yuan says. His eyes flutter shut and his lips part with a moan when the dark haired male nips at his neck. Dan Heng wonders if the General is getting hard as well.
“I’ve kissed Stelle and March before. It was some test those two were doing, I think? I’m not sure. I don’t get those girls sometimes,” he replies as he pulls away to look at the elder. He removes his hand from the other’s white locks and moves it to lightly grab Jing Yuan’s chin. He leans in to give him a quick kiss.
“Mm, I see. I have a few questions to ask you then,” the elder says, opening his eyes to look at Dan Heng.
“Ask away.”
“With your visions of the past, you’ve only seen Dan Feng and I kiss each other, right? Nothing more intimate than that?” he asks.
The younger male’s cheeks heat up at the thought of seeing his past incarnation doing sexual things with Jing Yuan. “Correct,” he replies.
“And kissing is the only thing you’ve done, yes?”
“Yes.”
“Would you like to go further than that, with me?”
Dan Heng’s breath stutters and his teal eyes widen a little. “Yes,” he starts, “yes, please.”
Jing Yuan chuckles and says, “Let’s go to my room then.”
“Before you get up,” Dan Heng says, stopping him.
The elder tilts his head to the side, “Yes?”
The young dragon pulls him closer by the chin and gives him a kiss. “I like kissing you,” he mumbles against his lips.
“I can tell,” he says as he chuckles again.
“Okay, we can go to your room now,” Dan Heng says as he stands up. He pulls the General along with him.
“Do you even know where my room is?”
“Of course. I see it in my visions.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Dan Heng drags the elder down the hall and to his own room. He shuts the door behind them once they enter and he pulls the white haired male closer to him by his waist. The General wraps his arms around the slightly shorter male’s neck afterwards. This time, Jing Yuan leans in to kiss Dan Heng.
This one is slower than their first kiss they shared, with Jing Yuan taking the lead. The young dragon melts into the kiss and pulls the other closer to him. The older male plays with strands of Dan Heng’s long, dark hair as he pulls away from the kiss and places his lips on the other’s neck. He leaves a trail of kisses, nipping the skin here and there. Breathy moans leave the dark haired male’s lips.
“Jing Yuan,” he calls out, the elder hums against his skin, telling him to continue, “How are we going to do this?”
“Hm… you choose. I’m fine with whatever you decide to pick,” he answers. The white haired male pulls away to look at him.
“I don't think I’m ready for you to be inside of me,” Dan Heng replies. His cheeks have a light blush on them.
“That’s okay, darling,” he pauses to give the dragon a kiss, “I’m perfectly fine with that.” Dan Heng feels his cheek’s heating up more at the pet name.
“I’d rather feel you around me, honestly,” he replies. His smiles at the way Jing Yuan’s eyes widen and he notices how the elder’s cheeks begin to flush.
“Let’s move this to my bed,” he says, his eyes not meeting Dan Heng. This makes the dragon laugh softly.
As they make their way over to the bed, both of them begin to shed some of their clothing. After Jing Yuan throws his shirt off to the side, leaving himself in his pants, he lays down on the bed. Dan Heng climbs onto the bed and straddles the elder’s waist, looking down at the other. Jing Yuan’s chest is exposed and Dan Heng truly doesn’t know how to handle it. He shifts his weight to one of his arms and he uses his other hand to trail his fingers up to the elder’s nipple.
He pinches it lightly and he smiles proudly when Jing Yuan lets out a low gasp. He continues to play with the pink bub as he leans down to kiss the General. He tugs and pinches the bud and with each sound the elder makes, it goes straight to the dragon’s cock.
The dark haired male then trails his hand downwards to Jing Yuan’s pants. He teasingly slips one of his fingers underneath and mutters against the older male’s lips, “Can I take these off?”
“Please do,” Jing Yuan replies.
Dan Heng helps the other take off his pants, throwing them off to the side. The younger male does the same to his own pants. Minutes later, the both of them are completely undressed.
“You’re so beautiful,” Dan Heng whispers in awe as he looks down at the man laying before him.
“I could say the same about you.”
The dark haired male can’t help but to lean back down and kiss the General. Kissing the older male has become addicting to Dan Heng. When he pulls away, he says, “I’ll be honest and say that I do not know what I’m doing.”
“That’s okay, I’ll guide you. Get into my side table and there should be a bottle of lubricant in there,” the white haired male says.
Dan Heng leans over the other male and reaches for the drawer. Their hard cocks rub against each other as he does this, making the both of them gasp. Jing Yuan grabs hold of the young dragon’s hips and lightly grinds their cocks together. A moan leaves Dan Heng’s lips.
“You’re distracting me,” he mutters as he finally grabs the lubricant bottle.
“It feels good though, doesn’t it?” Jing Yuan questions as he applies more pressure as he grinds against the dark haired male.
Dan Heng begins moving his hips as well. “It does,” he breathes out. “But I want to learn how to please you. I’ll cum if we continue this.”
The General chuckles and says, “Okay, I’ll stop.” He stops grinding against the other male’s cock.
The younger male positions himself between the elder’s legs and says, “What do I do with this?” He holds up the bottle and moves it side to side.
“Open it up and put some on your first three fingers. After you do that, rub those three fingers together to warm up the lubricant,” the white haired male explains.
Dan Heng does as he tolds and then he looks back up at Jing Yuan. “What’s next?” he asks.
“Circle your index finger around my… entrance and then slowly insert it,” the older male answers.
The dragon brings his hand downwards and circles his finger around the other man’s rim a few times before carefully pushing past the muscles. “Like this?” he asks. His finger fully sinks inside the elder.
“Yes, like that. Move your finger for me and I’ll tell you when to add another one,” Jing Yuan says. He spreads his legs open a little more.
Dan Heng slowly pulls his finger out and thrusts it back in. He repeats these movements as he stares in awe at how the elder sucks his finger back in. “Can I add another?” he asks as he looks back up at the General.
“Yes you can, darling,” Jing Yuan replies. His voice sounds an octave deeper than it usually does. This causes the younger male’s cock to twitch.
Carefully, Dan Heng adds a second finger next to his other. He moves his fingers a little faster than he did before, curling them a bit as he does so. A gasp leaves the General’s lips and he clenches down on the fingers inside him. The dragon can feel his precum leaking from his tip as Jing Yuan makes more sinful noises.
“You sound so pretty,” the younger man says as he curls his fingers again.
“Thank you,” the white haired male breathes out, his chest rising and falling rapidly.
“You’re more than welcome.”
Dan Heng’s eyes trail down to the elder’s leaking cock. He uses his other hand to wrap his fingers around it and leans his head down, bringing the head to his mouth. “Is this okay?” he asks, his lips very close to the tip.
You see, the young dragon isn’t completely clueless when it comes to sex. He has read a few erotic novels here and there, so he knows a few things. He is just inexperienced.
“Aeons yes, that’s perfectly fine,” Jing Yuan moans. The dragon takes the head of the older male's cock in his mouth, sucking on it. “Oh,” the white haired man moans as he moves his fingers to tangle them through Dan Heng’s hair. Dan Heng lowers his head as he adds a third finger. Once he has all three fingers inside, he curls them as he bobs his head. “Dan Heng, darling, if you don’t stop I’ll cum.”
The younger male removes his head with a pop. “Okay okay,” he mumbles as he also removes his fingers.
“Grab the lubricant and put some on your cock for me,” Jing Yuan says, untangling his fingers from the other male’s hair.
Dan Heng opens the bottle again and squeezes some onto his hand. He lathers his cock with it and then aligns the tip with the elders hole. “Ready?” he asks as he looks up at him.
The General nods his head and says, “Mhm, I am.”
Slowly and carefully, the dragon pushes the head of his cock in. “Shit,” he hisses as he pushes further. A low moan leaves Jing Yuan’s lips as he does this. He stops for a second to compose himself. His eyes are tightly shut and he’s holding onto the older man’s thighs for support. “So tight and warm,” he gasps as he pushes in further, bottoming out completely. Dan Heng slumps forward and buries his face between the elders neck and shoulder.
“You feel so good, darling. You’re doing so well,” Jing Yuan praises, placing a hand on the young dragon’s back. He rubs comforting circles into his skin with his thumb. A soft, quiet whimper leaves Dan Heng’s lips.
“I-I need a moment, if that’s okay?” he questions, his voice sounding strained. He places multiple little kisses on the elders shoulder afterwards.
“Take all the time you need,” Jing Yuan says. He also places a kiss on the dragon’s shoulder.
Dan Heng pulls away slightly, to lift himself up, and rest his forehead on the other male’s. He presses his lips against the older male’s as he moves his hands to Jing Yuan’s waist. He slowly begins to pull out, moaning softly into the kiss. When only Dan Heng’s tip is in, he thrusts back inside, going a little faster. He gasps against the white haired male’s lips and the hold he has on his waist tightens.
“Feels so good,” he breathes out as he continues to fuck into Jing Yuan. A whine leaves his lips as the General clenches around him. He snaps his hips forward with a little force, causing both of them to moan.
“You can move faster, darling,” Jing Yuan says as he loosely wraps his legs around Dan Heng’s waist. The young dragon does exactly that and speeds up his thrust. He moves his hands on either side of the elders shoulders, gripping the sheets. “There you go, good boy,” he praises, his voice sounding airy. Low moans leave his lips as Dan Heng moves inside him.
“Jing Yuan,” the younger man moans. His eyes meet the General’s and his breath stutters as he thrusts faster. There’s a blush spreading down the white haired male’s chest and his eyes are lidded. Jing Yuan’s lips part as soft moans leave his mouth. His hair is spread all over the pillow under him. The dragon’s own hair is like a veil around them. Dan Heng thinks the older man looks beyond beautiful right now.
His eyes trail down to Jing Yuan’s neglected cock and an idea forms in his mind. He straightens up as his tail slips its way in between them and wraps itself around the other man’s cock. Jing Yuan’s eyes widen as Dan Heng’s tail strokes him. His hips buckle and he moans as the dragon’s tail moves faster.
“You feel so good inside me,” he cuts himself off with a moan as Dan Heng’s thrust becomes rougher, “And you tail around my cock? Feels wonderful.”
“A-ah, thought you would like it,” Dan Heng replies. He matches his strokes with his thrust. The young dragon can feel himself getting close.
“Are you getting close, darling?” the General asks. He clenches around the other male’s cock again.
Dan Heng gasps and says, “Yes!” His thrust starts to become sloppy.
Jing Yuan chuckles as he pulls the younger male closer to kiss him. He cups his cheeks to deepen it. He moves one of his hands to tangle through Dan Heng’s long locks.
“I wonder if your horns are sensitive…” the elder thinks out loud as his voice trails off. He slowly inches his fingers to the dragon’s horn.
“Wait Jing —— a-ah!” Jing Yuan lightly rubs the dark haired man’s horn with his index finger. This makes Dan Heng’s hips stutter. “I-I’m going to cum,” he moans.
“Then be a good boy and cum for me,” the older one whispers. “I’m getting close too.”
The dragon thrusts in one more before stilling completely and cumming inside the General with his head thrown back. He doesn’t stop moving his tail though. A loud moan leaves Jing Yuan’s lips at the feeling of being filled up. He follows Dan Heng soon after, cumming all over himself and the younger male’s tail.
Both men stay how they are for a few moments, breathing heavily. The dragon has his eyes shut tightly with his head thrown back still.
“I didn’t mean to… cum inside you,” he says seconds later. He looks down at the white haired male. He unwraps his tail from the elders cock and slowly starts to pull out. The two of them let out hisses at this.
“I didn’t mind it at all,” Jing Yuan says as he starts to sit up. “I’ll go grab a washcloth to clean us up. Stay right here for me.” He gets up off the bed.
“I should be the one cleaning us up,” Dan Heng says as his eyes follow the older man. He moves to the edge of the bed, sitting down properly.
“Nonsense, let me take care of you,” he says as he disappears to the bathroom connected to his room. The General comes back minutes later with a cloth in hand. The young dragon can tell he already cleaned himself off. “Let me see your tail,” he softly commands as he holds his free hand out. Dan Heng places his tail in the other male’s hand.
It stays silent between them as Jing Yuan cleans him up. The elder places a kiss on the tail, smiling when he feels it twitch under his fingers. After some time, Jing Yuan finishes cleaning him off.
“Thank you,” Dan Heng says. There’s a small smile on his face.
Jing Yuan softly grabs his chin to pull him into a quick kiss. “Don’t need to thank me, darling. Do you want me to help you get dressed?” he asks.
“Can we help each other?”
“Of course.”
The duo help one another get dressed, sharing kisses here and there as they do so. “Do you have to go back to the Seat of Divine Foresight?” Dan Heng asks as he wraps his arms around the older man’s waist.
Jing Yuan sighs as he frowns a little. “I do. I was out longer than what I should have been,” he says. He does the same and wraps his arms around the dragon.
“Oh, I didn’t mean to keep you away from your work,” Dan Heng replies with a frown.
“It’s okay, they all could survive a few hours without me,” he pauses and places a small kiss on the younger male’s nose, “I have a question though.”
“What is it?” Dan Heng questions with his tail swaying behind him.
“Want to stay with me for your last few days here on the Luofu? If not, that’s perfectly fine.”
Dan Heng smiles softly and says, “I would like to stay with you. I’ll let the other Nameless know.”
Jing Yuan returns the smile. “Great. The only thing you will have to worry about is Yanqing popping in and out since he lives here as well. He won’t be home until I am so you don’t have to worry right now.”
“That’s fine by me,” the young dragon says.
The two of them then make their way back to the living room. “Make yourself at home while I’m gone. You can read one of my books, cook whatever you’d like. I don’t mind.” He pulls Dan Heng in to give him a kiss, “I’ll see you tonight, darling.”
“See you tonight,” Dan Heng hesitates to add, “Love.” Jing Yuan grins, showing his teeth, and gives the dragon one more kiss before he goes.
